Wtf To Eat



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on Oct. 30th. My starting weight 256.8' date=' Surgery day I weighed in at 247, as of Tuesday this week I weighed 228.2. I lost 8 pounds during pre-op diet a week before surgery, so all in all, I am down almost down 29lbs. I weight in on Saturday, tomorrow, so hopefully I've hit my 1st small goal of 30 lbs. :)

How about you?[/quote']

I was banded April 2011, weighed 267. Had the band removed sept 28 and got sleeved Oct 24 weighing in at 233. Nov 24 i weighed in @ 213. I went to visit my nurse yesterday and the scale says i gained one pound since last week. I'm not sure what's up. Was it the clothes, was it cause i haven't had a bm. That actually surprised and scared me since I'm eating the same.

I'm dealing with the "not having a bm". I actually called my doctor today about it... waiting for a response if I can take anything for it.

I drank chai tea straight, no sweetener and my not going troubles were resolved. It's a natural remedy- actually black tea of any sort is. Just watch the caffeine if your surgeon restricts it. (Mine was caffeine-free.)

I ate a baby dill pickle and drank some of the pickle juice. I'm sure it's an awful thing to confess that' date=' but I'm simply being honest. It took me a bit to eat the pickle but I enjoyed every last tiny nibble![/quote']

I do it too !!!!! Sometimes I just need that little pick me up a shot of Pickle Juice has to offer!

Pre-sleeve I never would have drank pickle juice!

Now it tastes like delicious Nector

I went to Buffalo Wild Wings and bought some of their sauces. Now I buy a rotisserie chicken and I make little 4oz meals with a teaspoon of whatever sauce tickles my fancy!!

Moist and delicious

My Dr said said it is normal not to go for days. When i first had my surgery, i didn't go for exactly two weeks two the day. If we are not really eating then nothing is going to come out.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
